the Urban Farm during the summer on Thursday afternoons and Saturday mornings. Each class focuses on a new theme like
chickens, bugs, butterflies and harvesting.
A parent or caregiver is required to attend.

Children's Programs
From Pre-K to University
Grow It Green works closely with the Morris School District and nearby schools and universities to offer students an accumulative learning experience that spans years. We tailor lessons, programs, and internships to every age group and cover topics like growing plants and produce, understanding global and local food systems, environmental science, biology, and of course, the joys of growing your own food, working outside, and enjoying vegetables fresh from the source.
Discovery-based learning in the classroom and on the farm invite young students to explore their connection with the land and try new vegetables picked with their own hands.
A high school internship program, Environmental Science class, and volunteer opportunities equip students with the knowledge and agency to make a difference in their communities.
A college internship program and a close collaboration with Drew University give students the opportunity to practice their leadership skills and apply their studies in the field.
We greatly appreciate all of the time, energy, excitement, passion, and care that Farmer Kim puts into each and every lesson throughout the entire school year. She has helped the students learn so much and has “planted seeds” that will continue to grow well beyond the classroom. Thank you Farmer Kim, Grow It Green, and donors!"
